computer. For more information about port locations, see “Checking Out Your
Gateway Profile” on page 1.
IEEE 1394 and USB ports support plug-and-play and hot swapping, which means
that your computer will usually recognize such a device whenever you plug it
into the appropriate port. When you use an IEEE 1394 or USB device for the
first time, your computer will prompt you to install any software the device
needs. After doing this, you can disconnect and reconnect the device at any
time.
